If you’re headed to Barcelona, there is one rooftop bar you can’t miss!
And Barcelona has no shortage of amazing rooftop bars. (Check out some of the other runner ups for “best rooftop bar in Barcelona” here. )
But one rooftop bar jumps to the top of my list due it’s spectacular views, affordable drink menu and accessibility to the public, even if you aren’t staying at the hotel!
Sercotel Hotel Rosellon
Address: Carrer del Rosselló, 390, 08025 Barcelona, Spain
“Sercotel Hotel Rosellon is a four-star hotel in Barcelona, with an urban and cosmopolitan design, is located in a privileged area in the nerve, commercial and tourist center of the city, in the heart of Eixample. Less than 200 meters from the majestic Basilica of the Sagrada Familia, the hotel enjoys a unique and exclusive view from the panoramic terrace or from some rooms on the not yet completed temple of Antoni Gaudí.”
Perfect views of the Basilica of the Sagrada Familia
Affordable drinks
For one glass of wine and one beer, we paid €7.50. Considering the prime location and view, we were expecting to pay a lot more!
Open, spacious rooftop
The terrace is fantastically open with a totally unobstructed view of the Sagrada Familia.
Choose from tables, bar stools or even lounge on the day beds to soak up the sun here!
Open to the public 11am – 7 pm
You don’t have to be staying at the hotel to take advantage of this great space. It’s open to anyone from 11am-7pm but after that it’s only open to hotel guests.
If you’d like to enjoy the views at sunset or in the evening, then I suggest booking a room at the hotel. Then the terrace is open until 11pm!
Get there right when it opens to guarantee a spot
This spot is relatively popular and the hotel only allows up a select number of public guests to it’s rooftop. I tried coming 3 times before I was finally let up to the top.
The trick? Show up right at 11am when it opens. When I tried to go on the weekend or during happy hour, the hotel staff wouldn’t let us up, stating it was too full.
Between the spectacular view, lounging daybeds, affordable drinks and great location- it’s easy to see why I picked this hotel as the best rooftop bar in Barcelona! Enjoy!
Enjoy Barcelona!
